The firing rule of Petri nets relies on a residuation operation for the commutative monoid of natural numbers. We identify a class of residuated commutative monoids, called Petri ...
Inheritance and polymorphism are key mechanisms of the object-oriented approach that enable designers to develop systems in an incremental manner. In this paper, we develop techni...
In this paper, the feasibility of using finite totally ordered probability models under Aleliunas’s Theory of Probabilistic Logic [Aleliunas, 1988] is investigated. The general...
We develop a query algebra that supports efficient assertion retrieval--a natural extension of instance retrieval. The algebra is based on previously developed techniques for index...

The value 1 problem is a decision problem for probabilistic automata on finite words: given a probabilistic automaton A, are there words accepted by A with probability arbitraril...
